do sturt bars reallymake a difference or is it show
and same for tie bars?

 

If you bought just a strut bar. Maybe not. Running the whole tie bar/ strut bar/ sway bar setup together they would probably all compliment each other. I have a rear strut bar on my car and I notice a little different when it is off. Especially when going up driveways at an angle and stuff. It doesn't rock as much.

Putting on a sway bar/ tie bar combo as soon as my endlinks get in. I am going to do a review and we'll see how it turns out!

Just think of it as either way you are connection the components together so in some manner they are making a difference. Maybe not something you'll notice on the street but there is a reason strut bars are made (and a lot of cars even come with them from the factory!). Just look at the rear hatch area of a 350Z. Haha.

 

As long as it is a SOLID tower bar. Any style from the below page will be beneficial. Anything that pivots is pointless.

prose

 

A strut brace is unlikely to actually make your car handle any better, or go any faster around a race circuit however they can make a noticable positive difference to driving feel.

+1. If you must get braces get solid ones without pivots such as Mugen, Carbing or Rigid.

 

You wont notice much difference on the street but on a track you will feel that the chassis is more stiff... but like square_1 said if you get the strut, tie bar and sway bar that would be the best combo right there!

Btw if you want to feel a noticable difference right away get a rear sway bar... you will feel your car handling alot better!!!

 

strut bars on the track are "fine tuning devices", they should be the last suspension mod
strut bars for show are bling

 

When i had my ep3 i had dc's front and rear wheni first put the front made alil difference after wards i put a rear dc tiebar and that made a hell of abig difference, specially at high speed turns,,
